4.13.1 M06: Tool Change


Format: M06 or M06Txx

(M06 habits are used for tool change, but there are other tool change codes such as M16, and the tool change code is determined by PLC decoding)


When the program is executed to M06, the CNC controller commands ATC (automatic tool changer) to perform the tool change action. When tool change is performed, not the tool can be replaced at any position. According to their different designs, each manufacturer is in a safe position to perform tool change to avoid collision with the bed and workpiece.


Note:

This instruction must first confirm that the machine is equipped with ATC. For details, please refer to the Machine company.
